You have to look twice, no,no, three times at this photo of another incredible Julian Beever work before You can understand exactly what was going on. Such is the creativity of this 3D magician: it really takes the visuals of street art to a whole new dimension.

English-born, Belgium-based artist Julian Beever has been creating three-dimensional street art, depiction old masters and doing portraits since the mid-1990s. His three dimensional chalk masterpieces, when viewed from the right angle, give the fantasy of depth using a process of projection called anamorphosis and the consequences are stunning. He’s not the only one to apply this method, but the complexity, detail and quality of his creations are mesmerising, striking many passers-by into a stupor.
